Dean is a small-time thief funding a drug habit. Sarah is a junior police officer on extended stress leave. Mary, a former school teacher, is an alcoholic living on the edge. Their paths cross at the local leagues club when Dean's grand plan for an armed robbery comes undone. Now irreversibly linked, each must decide who to betray, who to trust and who to protect. What they choose to do will change the course of their lives.

In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to James O'Loghlin about leaving a career in corporate law for the inglorious side of criminal law, creating likeable, loveable characters from ordinary people, and the moment when life spins out of control and paths cross for better or worse.
